mixtercharlie 's review for:

Salt and Sugar by Rebecca Carvalho
3.0
emotional funny hopeful lighthearted reflective sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

A fun lighthearted read. However, the plot and actions seemed to be an afterthought or a happy coincidence of the characters emotions and relationships. However, the characters are very well written and the emotions, dialogue and growth of the characters is palpable. I would recommend this book as a more middle grade/freshman crowd, as the book is easy to read and despite the characters ages very appropriate for younger readers.
